This camera is smaller than it looks, but the image quality for the size is astounding! In particular, making 1080 videos outdoors in the daytime will result in breathtaking footage. The colors are very true to life, like what your naked eye sees. I almost feel like I can make my own nature documentaries with this camera. The built-in light doesn't really help much at all, so like most camcorders, indoors shooting will still require strong alternate lighting unless you don't mind the constant noise in your video. There is also a little bit of artifacting in the outdoor videos, but only during fast motion. This might have been avoided if there was image stabilization, but I haven't been able to figure out how to turn it on if there was. You can almost give up on shooting indoors at night, the video has more grains than breakfast cereal.
The still camera capability is incredible, far better than the still image quality on my HandyCam. I don't expect it to be a replacement for my Canon SD1100IS but if you are shooting a barbeque at a friend's house, you won't be needing to bring multiple cameras with you. The images are crisp and definitely print quality. I can see having this camera with you at an outdoor graduation commencement or a fantastic springtime wedding. However, this camera was definitely made to simplify uploading video to the web and in that respect it is excellent. Don't expect to be getting a full-fledged professional quality HD camera, and you will be pleasantly surprised with some of the results.
